opinion on bronies/ask your questions to a brony

[Bronies are cool]

I think it's really cool that you like mlp and enjoy more than just one of the generations.
I personally have not seen any if the other generations, but I'm open to trying them out.

I would agree that the brony fandom is primarily g4 based. This is where the fandom kicked off and a majority of it is not really open to older generations. Especially 3 and 3.5.
I can see why you would not call yourself a pegasisiter even though you like the show.

I won't call myself a furry, however I do like anthropomorphic art. More like the feral kind. I don't really have a lot of actual interest in becoming any animal or having a fursona or anything else. I just mostly joined here to learn more about furries and now I'm staying here to maybe make friends and interact with different people.

I actually prefer feral art myself, actually.
I find anthro works best in the head and in text, probably because I'm so used to humanoids being animated.

I'm not a furry by choice, it's just an expression for me though coincidentally I do regard myself a fur because foxes are furry in a more traditional sense more than anything and it ironically fits.
I'm a therian so I literally feel like a anthro, well more like semianthro because the standard ideal of anthros in the furrydom with a human torso and limbs and a animal head and tail just doesn't seem quite like it flows together for me (for the same reason I preferred chibi because they're a bit cubbish and cuddly and rhythmic fun funny animal designs). The fact my mind crosses my human and nonhuman form and creates a intermediate phantom form is why I like anthros as well as ferals, it's a part of me.

For those who aren't therians I imagine those furries have a more benign reasoning (I saw one person referencing it a transhuman ideology, others as a expression of the intermediate of interspecies attraction) perhaps or were carried into the fandom via some furry esque franchise yet there's also the somewhat less anthro franchise such as MLP.

The furry fandom is very diverse for these reasons.
I don't really see it as a fandom. A fandom follows an object or product, yet furries follow in a arbitrary idea which is more loose like art and that's a quality of counter culture as its neither fandom anymore nor does it hold specifics to what can be described as a full genre.

i see furries and the whole furry thing more as a culture than a fandom really.

Yeah, crowdsourcing as a main element isn't the mark of a "fan"dom. Being furry is more like hippie, punk or goth than trekkie, whovian or brony.

Brony here. Got into it after a lot of stuff started showing up on places like FA, Tumblr, etc about em. Next thing you know I'm making analytical videos and became part of an online YouTube community. I'm about as open about it as I am with being a furry, which is to say I don't make it public unless someone asks. I have fun, and honestly they're no more odd than this community, they even have their own central brony forum like this site. I've met friends, made an enemy or two (just some rarity obsessed dude and a dude obsessed with "taking down the analysis community cause they didn't let me into their Skype group"), and I'm even going to be attending a Nightmare Nights Dallas convention where I've been invited to sit on a panel with other YouTube Analysts (exciting!).

It's had it's good and bad side but really, what fandom doesn't?

Whaats a brony ?

Whaats a brony ?

A brony is a person who likes mlp. (my little pony) And typically specifically the fourth generation of it which is sub titled Friendship Is Magic.
Kind of started off in 2010 when the show was kicked off again when the new (at the time)) HUB channel came to be. And it acquired a fan base online (I think mostly on 4chan) and became popular there until people hated on them and there was fighting. Then ponies were banned from 4chan so the bronies spread around the internet.

But basically, people who like mlp.
which is really broad.

and there are different kinds of bronies too.
(like people who have a "twisted like" for the ponies have their own name: cloppers.)
some females prefer to call themselves pegasisters
and then there is the regular brony
the casuals are also called bronies

and then there are the bronies that dont want to be called bronies because cloppers call themselves bronies and then they dont want anything to do with that so they avoid it and avoid being called broneis
its weird
but whatever

I think bronies could be more correctly defined.

"People who enjoy "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" that are not the target audience of the show"

I'm a pegasister. 




I'm not usually super active on the forum, but I wanted to reply to this topic 'cause I felt the urge to brohoof you, Bronies are cool.

Okay. Sorry. I'll stop being obnoxious now.

I used to be a Brony, then I left the fandom as soon as I joined varsity Lax. Doesn't mean I hate bronies, I still have Brony friends, and I still have my OC. Some bronies just annoy me, though, like those people who have Alicorn OCs. I hang out with those who are chill about being Bronies. All in all, I've just stopped caring about MLP

[Fenox Helkiin]

This pretty much says everything is furs have in common with bronies.
